Here's a list of instructions
For you to obey
And here's sharp knife
To cut your own throat
Small sacrifice in return for a vote

Whispered word in Pankhurst's ear
Visions of the first woman peer
Led women down the garden path
And into the arms of the enemy

Jail and force feeding, waster martyrdom
Sold her songs for the national anthem
Slotted the smile back neatly into place
Served refreshments at the end of the race
All demands reduced to a joke
X marks the plague, abandon hope

Butlers still pouring brandy for the rich
Excuse me pass me the privilege
A woman's voice, the state's ideas
Same vested interests, same dirty deals

Currie and Williams immersed in the times
Examples to keep the rest in line
Currie and Williams two of a kind
Examples to keep the rest in line
